In a two-stroke engine, the compression ratio typically ranges from about 6:1 to 12:1, depending on the specific design and application. Higher performance two-stroke engines, such as those used in racing or high-performance applications, may achieve even higher compression ratios. The optimal compression ratio helps to maximize power output and efficiency while minimizing emissions. However, it’s crucial to balance compression with fuel quality to prevent knocking or detonation.
On a 2 stroke engine, each cylinder fires every time the piston comes up. On a 4 stroke engine, the cylinder only fires every OTHER time the piston comes up. 4 stroke engines have 4 strokes: Intake, compression, power, and exhaust. 2 stroke engines complete these cycles in only two strokes of the piston by use of ports in the cylinder walls. 2 stroke engines usually produce more power for a given weight/size. But, in gasoline engines, 2 stroke engines are typically less efficient (use more gas) and have much higher pollution levels (note: some newer "direct injection" 2 stroke engines do much better on pollution levels than the typical 2 stroke)
A pull cord starts a 2-stroke internal combustion engine by creating a mechanical force that rotates the engine's flywheel. When the cord is pulled, it engages a starter mechanism, which turns the crankshaft and compresses the air-fuel mixture in the combustion chamber. As the engine reaches the appropriate compression, a spark plug ignites the mixture, leading to combustion that powers the engine. This sequence allows the engine to start and run smoothly.
The two-stroke diesel engine was developed by Rudolf Diesel, the inventor of the diesel engine itself. Diesel patented his design in 1892, which utilized a compression ignition system. While the concept of two-stroke engines existed prior, Diesel's work significantly advanced the technology for diesel engines, including the two-stroke variant.
No, the intake stroke pulls fuel-air into the cylinder, the compression stroke squeezes (compresses) this mixture into a small volume.
In a typical four-stroke engine, the camshaft completes two revolutions for every one stroke cycle of the piston. This is because the four-stroke cycle consists of intake, compression, power, and exhaust strokes, which require the camshaft to operate the intake and exhaust valves twice during each cycle. Thus, for every complete cycle of the engine, the camshaft turns two full revolutions.
There is no separate compression stroke on a 2 stroke engine, but there is compression - the intake and compression take place on the same staroke, the intake on the first part and compression on the later part.
Depends on if this engine is a 2 stroke, 4 stroke, or rotary engine. I assume you are referring to a 4 stroke as found in the vast majority of automobiles built today. The answer is, At the top of the compression stroke. The 4 strokes of a 4 cycle engine are:# intake/induction stroke # compression stroke # power stroke # exhaust strokeDepends on if this engine is a 2 stroke, 4 stroke, or rotary engine.

Typically, a 2-stroke engine has a higher compression ratio compared to a 4-stroke engine. This is because 2-stroke engines can complete a power cycle in just two strokes of the piston, allowing for a more compact design and higher compression. However, the specific compression ratio can vary widely depending on the engine design and application. In general, while 2-stroke engines may have higher ratios, 4-stroke engines tend to be more efficient and produce less emissions.

It is called the compression stroke.
The 4 strokes of an internal combustion engine are as follows:- 1 Induction stroke 2 Compression stroke 3 Power stroke 4 Exhaust stoke
In a 4-stroke engine, there is one compression stroke for every two revolutions of the crankshaft. Since a 6-cylinder engine has six cylinders, each cylinder will have one compression stroke every two revolutions. Therefore, in one revolution of a 6-cylinder 4-stroke engine, there will be 3 compression strokes.
Because it takes 4 strokes to complete i cycle. 1, intake stroke. 2, compression stroke. 3, power stroke. 4, exhaust stroke.

You're talking about an engine compression brake, commonly referred to as a Jake Brake.
